You’re still knowingly accessing something that someone paid to create and you’re gaining a benefit from that in entertainment.
And how do you feel about adblockers? By using one you’re depriving sites of the ad revenue they’d gain off of you reading their article or watching their video, etc. Do you use one or are you raw dogging the internet so that the content servers can harvest your data which they sell to serve you targeted ads?
What I won’t do is write a diatribe about how what I am doing isn’t going to deprive websites of a ad impression or that the websites deserve it because of how many ads whey paste across their site. I do it because it’s simple for me to setup on my network I have control of and it makes my browsing expriance better, I fully accept that if everyone acted like me then most websites will end up behind a full paywall.
Its people who pretend what they are doing is justified and moral over just being easy to do with nominal risk to themselves. Just own it bro, that’s all I ask. You do it because you can, it’s easy and you’re unlikely to get caught.
